two.

Evie's POV:
as i talked with mal and the people who were interested in my fashion designs, i felt eyes on me. being raised in the isle teachers you a thing or two about knowing if you're being watched. i quickly excused myself from my potential clients and my best friend as i took a moment to skim through my surroundings.

i raised an eyebrow as i saw that no one was facing or eyeing me. everyone was either in their own little conversations or they were dancing the night away. i then turn my head to my right when i hear footsteps. it was carlos. he approached me with a worried look on his face.

" hey E you ok? you seem a little on edge." he asked with a raised eyebrow.

" i'm fine carlos, thank you for asking". i answered with a soft smile. i always appreciated when carlos would check up on me when he felt like i wasn't ok. it was something he started doing since we were kids.

" you sure? 'cause you've been spacing out the whole time we've been talking, and you only do that when you've got something on that mind of yours."

' have i really been spacing out?'

" alright you got me!" i said, throwing my arms up in a joking manner to signify my 'surrender'. there was no hiding anything from this boy, was there?

" i feel like i'm being watched, but not in like a ' i'm gonna get kidnapped' sort of way. more like, someone's watching me from a distance? " my statement came out more or less like i was questioning myself.

" i know i sounds dumb, but i just can't shake the feeling!" i exclaimed, not knowing why i was stressing out about this whole situation. it was probably nothing to worry about!

" it doesn't sound dumb evie, you're just taking precautions and that's completely normal! thought, i will say, it might just be people starting at you and your dress. i mean, come on! you look great! " carlos said as he made a motion that looked as if he was the one showing off my dress.

i chuckled at the freckled boy's actions, knowing that he was probably right. people were just staring at my beautiful creation!

" thank you carlos, i really needed to get that off of my mind." i stated, an even bigger smile growing on my face as he mimicked my facial expressions.

" anytime E! you know you can always talk to me when you need it." his big smile turning soft as he went to pat my shoulder.

" well, i should head back to jane. i kinda just left her by the drinks and snacks." carlos says as he rubbed his head in embarrassment.

i chuckled at my friend once again. he really left his girlfriend alone like that? i thought i taught him better. i rolled my eyes jokingly as i started scolding him.

" then what are you still doing here? go back to her!" i say with a laugh as he salutes and runs in the direction of his girlfriend.

i continue to chuckle as i go through out conversation in my mind. but one thought still stayed. even though i believed what carlos said about people staring at my dress, i still continued to look around me to see if anyone would be staring at me now.

as i looked at my surroundings, i caught a glimpse of something shining in the sun in the corner of my eye. i turn in the direction of the light source and for a split second, i see a red, tattered cape flap as the person turns around with something of a dramatic spin. i couldn't quite see their face, but just based on the cape and the little bit of dark brown hair that i saw before the person disappeared, it was the cocky pirate himself...
